Market Driver

The textile industry's transformation from manual processes to automation is a significant trend, with the adoption of automated machinery and software solutions becoming increasingly prevalent. Automation enhances productivity and ensures employee safety through integrated hardware and software systems, such as programmable logic controllers (PLC), programmable automation controllers (PAC), distributed control systems (DCS), American power conversion (APC), manufacturing execution systems (MES), and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA). These solutions facilitate flexible automation strategies, enabling manufacturers to produce multiple products from a single machine and reduce cost per meter. Automated open networks for communication enhance product quality by feeding data automatically. Automation improves production rates from yarn manufacturing and synthetic fiber spinning to fabric processing and weaving. Additionally, it increases process uptime with enhanced efficiency and safety. In the context of outdoor apparel manufacturing, automation's benefits include safer spinning and dyeing processes, improved production rates, and favorable working conditions. The large-scale adoption of automation solutions in the textile and fabric manufacturing industries is expected to drive the global outdoor apparel market during the forecast period.

Instead, they opt for indoor fitness activities, leading to reduced demand for outdoor apparel. Consequently, the market growth may be hindered during the forecast period.
  • The outdoor apparel market is thriving, driven by the growing popularity of adventure activities like hiking, camping, running, cycling, and adventure tourism.
